Three Ways to Enjoy a Spa
At Beresta Park Hotel, walks to the main sights can be combined with visits to its large spa complex; pool and sauna access is free at set times depending on the room category. Akron is a good choice for a stay with therapeutic treatments, while Veryazhsky on the outskirts offers a sauna.

Bathhouse Escapes Near Veliky Novgorod
All three stays have a traditional Russian bathhouse, but each offers a different experience. Prosto Kvashino is 300 metres from Lake Ilmen, while the cottages at Ilmen have kitchens and barbecue areas. At Lisitsky Park, a five-minute drive from the city, the bathhouse is complemented by a wood-fired hot tub.
A Spa Break in Nature
Belka suits a peaceful cottage stay amid coniferous forest, with a traditional Russian bathhouse and ponds for summer swimming. Mstinskie Gorki has more options for relaxing in the water: a heated year-round pool, sauna and hot tub, plus a Russian bathhouse with a plunge pool.
What to consider when choosing
Volkhov and Akron are convenient for exploring the city: both are centrally located, about five minutes from the Novgorod Kremlin. Volkhov has a saltwater pool, hammam and steam room, while Akron offers an indoor pool, hammam and infrared sauna.
A city hotel is more convenient for sights and restaurants, while a countryside stay offers more peace and nature. Belka, for example, has cottages in a coniferous forest and a traditional Russian bathhouse, while Mstinskie Gorki offers a heated year-round pool, sauna and hot tub.
Check the spa access rules and opening hours: at Beresta Park Hotel, for example, complimentary pool and sauna access depends on the room category and is available at set times. The cottages at Ilmen have kitchens for convenient self-catering, while Sofiyskaya Embankment offers playgrounds for a family walk.
